Facelifted 2023 Hyundai Palisade Prices Rise By $1,350, New XRT Starts From $42,150

The Hyundai Palisade SE, the cheapest model in the range, will start at $34,950 ($36,245 w/ $1,295 freight charge) for the 2023 model year. That’s an increase of $1,350 over the same model of the pre-facelift 2022 model.

The company today announced pricing for its entire lineup of 2023 Palisades and, as before, the range tops out with the fancy Calligraphy trim, which has an MSRP of $50,800 ($52,095 w/ freight charges). The rugged new XRT trim, meanwhile, starts at $42,150 ($43,445 w/ freight charges).

Available in both front- and all-wheel-drive, the XRT model comes with everything offered on the SEL trim plus Dark 20-inch wheels, rugged lower bumpers, lower door garnishes, and skid plate accents. It also gets a Dark grille finish, black roof side rails, body-colored exterior door handles, a power sunroof, and Black H-Tex leatherette seating surfaces.

If you opt for the Palisade XRT AWD, you get all of that plus an HTRAC liftgate badge, downhill brake assistance, a snow mode, a tow mode, and an AWD lock. Either way, you get some tough-looking XRT badges as well.

Updated for the 2023 model year, the Hyundai Palisade benefits from a new, more angular grille and a slightly more upright front fascia, to look boxier. The headlights, too, were tweaked, though they retain their split design.

Inside, meanwhile, the design remains consistent with the outgoing model but is subtly improved. The infotainment screen now grows from 10.25 inches to 12 and the HVAC vents are slimmer, fitting in more elegantly with the dashboard. A new four-spoke steering wheel, on the other hand, looks a little more futuristic than the three-spoke unit it replaces. Behind it, a new instrument cluster also improves on the 2022 model’s. Front “Ergo-Motion” seats, meanwhile, are borrowed from Genesis, hinting at this big SUV’s luxurious ambitions.

All models are powered by the same 3.8-liter V6 engine that makes 291 HP (295 PS/217 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 262 lb-ft (355 Nm) of torque at 5,200 rpm. The 2023 Hyundai Palisade is expected to hit dealerships this summer.
